For poor people (ex lumenproletariat, but incl anyone struggling, which incls some middleclass ‘big spenders’) hard to give a hoot about privacy when like the bottom 2 rungs of maslow’s hierarchy of needs are lacking.

I personally bumped into digital privacy/the fediverse somewhat randomly when covid lockdowns were happening. Always sorta had an innate concept of privacy compared to some people though.

    Who are you talking about?

      Guessing he means folks like Moxie Marlinespike, Popey, Torvalds, Cory Doctrow (though I think he’s on Mastodon actually), etc.
